This is a super fun putting tool. Let me start by saying you will need some room to set it up. It’s 10 feet long by 19.9 inches wide, so be prepared.Now my wife loves using this with me; probably because I am so bad. I hit 25 balls to get started, got none in the hole, yeah that’s right not a single one. On the good side I didn’t miss any of the ball catching bumpers, so at least I didn’t have to go ball hunting. The wife on the other hand got 3 out of 15 in the hole. I think she’s been practicing. Next time I’m going to cheat and use the breaking wedge insert without telling her, so her balls curve when they hit the incline.Everything about this is well thought out. From the wedge that can put varying size raised edges along the mat, to the 2 ball bumpers that Velcro to each end of the mat to catch the balls. I didn’t find the tracking feature where the balls leave a little trace where they travelled very handy. All I care about is did it go in or not, but that’s just me. Anyone really trying to practice putting will find it useful. It even has a roller to clear the tracks out.The speed lanes do make a difference, particularly when you watch how fast the ball comes to a stop, in my case usually 3 to 5 inches before going in the hole.My favorite feature is the game ideas, complete with rules of play. We love shuffleboard, so we will be using this all the time to play the shuffleboard game; or at least until I start winning, then my wife will want to change to a different game.Anyway, I find absolutely nothing to complain about with this item, it’s nothing but fun.
